Data from the OPERAS business models survey on open access books

OPERAS (the European Research Infrastructure for the development of open scholarly communication in the social sciences and humanities) has conducted a survey of publishing organisations throughout Europe to identify and better understand existing and potential business models to support the Open Access publication of research monographs. The results of the survey are used to inform the formulation of recommendations about how to create a sustainable open access book publishing ecosystem within Europe. The survey was designed to serve two core aims: <br> 1. To further, better or improve our understanding of the scholarly publishing landscape and of the challenges that publishers face in the context of publishing OA monographs;<br> 2. To identify main trends (including opportunities and challenges) and the knowledge of collaborative funding and infrastructure models in OA publishing in SSH. The survey was open between 16 February and 14 April 2021. The results are presented in two versions of the white paper of the Open Access Business Models Special Interest Group: Stone, Graham, Błaszczyńska, Marta, Lebon, Chloé, Morka, Agata, Mosterd, Tom, Mounier, Pierre, Proudman, Vanessa, Speicher, Lara, &amp; Melinščak Zlodi, Iva.
